At Josie’s mother’s funeral, three eccentric women crash the service claiming to be her mother’s badminton group. While learning how to play in the El Monte badminton gyms, Josie attempts to unpack the secret life her mother had, the mysterious circumstances around her death, and trying to get her mother's ghost to stop haunting her. Meanwhile, Josie's dead mother's ghost has a secret plan of her own—to get Josie to live a little.
